Miracles
vs. John Hick (90% sure it was him):

If a miracle is defined as an unexplainable act (in that it goes against our understanding of natural laws), it is still not miraculous. Natural laws are necessarily derived from observation of nature - any apparent 'miracle', if sufficiently proven to have happened, requires re-writing of our understanding of the laws of nature, rather than requiring us to invoke God to explain it.


I quite like this argument, even if (as I'm sure others will point out), it does hinge on a specific definition of miracles.
